That doesn't really answer the question.

Apparently, you are hitting a R_AARCH64_JUMP26 or R_AARCH64_CALL26
relocation that operates on a b or bl instruction that is more than
128 megabytes away from its target.

In module_frob_arch_sections(), we count all such relocations that
point to other sections, and allocate a PLT slot for each (and update
plt_max_entries) accordingly. So this means that the relocation in
question was disregarded, and this could happen for only two reasons:
- the branch instruction and its target are both in the same section,
in which case this section is *really* large,
- CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is disabled, but you are still ending up in a
situation where the modules are really far away from the core kernel
or from other modules.

Do you have a lot of [large] modules loaded when this happens?
